There's No Business Like Show Business Lyrics

Artist: Harry Connick, Jr.
Album: Come By Me

The butcher, the baker, the grocer, the clerkAre secretly unhappy men becauseThe butcher, the baker, the grocer, the clerkGet paid for what they do but no applauseThey'd gladly bid their dreary jobs goodbyeFor anything theatrical and why

There's no business like show businessLike no business I knowEverything about it is appealingEverything the traffic will allowNowhere could you get that happy feelingWhen you are stealing that extra bow

There's no people like show peopleThey smile when they're lowEven with a turkey that you know will foldYou may be stranded out in the coldStill you wouldn't change it for a sack of goldLet's go on with the show

The costumes, the scenery, the makeup, the propsThe audience that lifts you when you're downThe headaches, the heartaches, the backaches, the flopsThe sheriff that escorts you out of townThe opening when your heart beats like a drumThe closing when the customers won't come

There's no business like show businessLike no business I knowYou get word the show has startedThat your favorite uncle died at dawnTop of that your pa and ma have partedYou're broken hearted but you go on

There's no people like show peopleThey never ever run out of doughYesterday they told you you would not go farThat night you opened and there you areNext day on your dressing room they hung a starLet's go on with the show
